Oh bless you.... yes I had a Decepticob once and he too convinced me that breaking things were a "re-imagination" of 'stuff'.

Your "re-engineering" looks suspiciously like something a Destructacob can manage quite easily with two hooves tied behind his back.
 
I bought a cob who was meant to be a complete novice plod. She put me in a&e when I tried to ride her once I got her home. I think I'd be in trouble with trading standards if I sold her as a complete novice slow plod 😂
I love the fact she has a huge moustache and lots of feather. At the end of the day I love her and beauty is very much in the eye of the beholder. Some people like cobs and others don't it doesn't mean any horse is less worthy or nice than another.

We'll only need to wait until the end of March and then we can wish this thread a Happy 8th. Birthday …. just think of that, how exciting! :D

I wonder if Shils ever imagined that her opening post would have given birth to a marathon!

Oh if only I knew how to add a photo.....suffice to say that Shy caused MAYHEM when he stepped over a jump and just straddled it. It was brilliant, I was laughing my tits off, everyone went into panic mode.... only a COB could be that clever. Now how do I upload photos.......

Shilasdair seemed to be a person who knew a lot about forum stuff

, but I'm not sure even she expected this thread to stay alive for this long.

I hope she enjoys whatever it is she spends her time on these days.

Some people uploads their pictures in a HHO album, possibly directly from their computer, I don't know, I haven't tried it, but I presume that they can then share them from the album.


You can upload them to Flickr or similar. I have a Flickr account (even though I don't use it much), they have options to copy the image code, and the option which makes it possible for you to post your image on HHO have [ IMG ] (without any space between the brackets and the letters, I have to write it with the space in my reply, otherwise it becomes invisible) in the beginning, and the end.
Make sure to use preview before posting, so that you can check that you haven't copied a too big version of the image. Flickr have several basic image sizes you can easily choose between, but some of them makes the images too big.


If you have posted the images on Facebook or Twitter, you can do the same as I do with the images I find on Google/Yahoo image searches:

Right click the image
Look for something which says Copy Image Address (at least that is what it says for me, but in Swedish)
Left click that option
Open an Go Advanced reply box on HHO
Find and click the symbol to Insert Image (this adds the image code to the info you copied, which makes the forum know it should be shown as a photo)
Use Ctrl + V to paste the image code.

Preview your reply to make sure that the image shows up, and isn't too large.


Once you've done it successfully a few times, it is really easy. By the way, that is also how I post "my" smileys, I find one I like, copy the image address, and paste it in my replies.

I clicked Go Advanced, and took a screenshot of your reply, added some text explanations, saved it, posted it on my Facebook, and is now copying it in my reply, from my Facebook.

Remember, the computors we use only does what we tell them, if you don't specifically tell them that you want to show it as an image or video, it will only show it as a clickable internet address. This is how your video will show up, if it says video between the brackets.

You're most welcome, I hope you make it work.

I'm impressed that Cinnamontoast was able to post brackets + img, without spaces inbetween, and yet it didn't become invisible. It always used to become invisible for me, so I learn new things about how this forum works, too.

So am I, after many years of owning different computer/laptops, I still consider myself a computer numptie, but when it has been something I really wanted to do on my computer, I can be quite stubborn. Try and fail, try and fail, and try and fail again. Some days I've had to give up, and try again another day. For example, recently I learned how to make one picture of several screenshots, it actually made me feel a little skillful.

I bought my first mobile phone some months ago, so that it would be easier for my mum to get hold of me if she wanted to. She haven't needed to call me on it yet, which is good, because I still haven't managed to answer a singel call on it. All I've managed to do is either hang up, or send a message that I can't talk at the moment.
Oh, and when I was trying to switch to a Swedish keyboard on the phone, I first managed to switch to a Punjabi keyboard. Oops!

:)
 
I'm planning to have French lessons via Skype... just tried it out again with my mum. Hopeless. It's 2017 ! My Twitter account has been spammed, I reported it again today, and they locked my account. I used to run a Facebook mediumship group with 13k members, that got hacked, nope nowt doing, just gave up. *chuckles*
 
Bonjour, Shysmum. Tu veux que je te parle donc en français??

Rejoin Facebook and follow the J'aime le Français page. I'm forever sending myself photos of their stuff, really useful for sixth form.
